Ala. man dismembered girlfriend, put remains in boxes: 'Level of depravity you only see in a horror movie'

An Alabama man was sentenced to prison Monday for dismembering his girlfriend’s body with a chainsaw and dumping the remains behind a Target store, PEOPLE confirms.

Circuit Judge James Smith sentenced William Lewis Payton, 44, to 40 years in prison. He was convicted earlier this month of corpse abuse after the death of 27-year-old Tonya Amerson, whose remains were found in trash bags and U-haul boxes on October 16, 2015.
